My leaves, the older ones are falling apart. It looks like angular leaf spot, or mites. I shook them on paper didnt see any thing . I used a X-glass. This worries me I know pics help. question is what to use for spot and mites. I had a buddy pick up some bifenthrin at menards. it is orthomax he said it was .3% 3 TBL per gal. I havent got it yet. Should I spray the bif. tonight and get all the plant, under leaves as well just maybe avoid the tips and fruit? How long should I wait to spray chlorathalinol in case its fungul, after I spray insecticides? Does bif. kill svb? Does triacizide kill svb? How long should I wait to alternate the insecticides? I just dont want to over due it. I dont know my older leaves are looking pretty bad. All chewed up or diseased. I also applied merit 2 x. Will merit kill bees I see them in my male flowers all the time, very disabled. Will the chlorothalinol work on leaf spot, its the only thing I can figure it might be. All the diseases look alot alike. I have been searchin for hours, and read alot of posts on here, aahh. Maybe I should try to take pics and have my wife try to put them on here. I dont have a diary though. I have been using chloro, triaz, and merit,

The description of symptoms sounds almost like something might already be overdone. Spray injury?

Real deal Talstar is 7.9% Bifenthrin & can be used at a half oz per gallon to control mites. A squirt of dish washing detergent helps. Just focus the spray on the undersides of the leaves at sundown....BUT

You said you didn't see any mites.....

Thrips are a problem in some areas this year too.

Could be ALS...

The description of symptoms could lead us to too many possible culprits.

You don't need a diary to post pictures. You can add them to the Gallery section where the image will still be credited to you.

I'd say to just email it to me (which you may do) but the more eyes the better.
